releasing: update for the new release process

Simon Ser requested to merge emersion/weston:releasing into master

A few things have changed:

  • Meson is used instead of autotools
  • Wayland and Weston releases are not synchronized anymore
  • Artifact deployment happens via wayland.freedesktop.org's Git repo

While at it, also convert the file to Markdown. Instructions to locally install Xwayland/libinput have been dropped.

I haven't bothered splitting the changes into fine-grained commits. I think reading both the old and new version side-by-side should give a pretty good idea of the changes.

Some changes to release.sh have yet to be upstreamed.
